Action Alert: Will Boy Scouts Give In To Bullying

Under increased pressure from homosexual activists and their allies, the Boy Scouts of America are reconsidering their current ban on homosexual leaders and members. In July last year the Scouts reaffirmed the ban. An 11-member special committee, formed discreetly by top Scout leaders in 2010, “came to the conclusion that this policy is absolutely the best policy for the Boy Scouts.” Now today’s announcement that they will reconsider the ban!

The pressure has mounted not only from outside the Scouts with homosexual activist Zach Wahls pressuring UPS, Intel and Merck to withhold grants from the BSA, but also from within the organization. Several local chapters and national board members corporate CEO Randall Stephenson of AT&T and James Turley of the Ernst & Young accounting firm are asking for reconsideration.

It appears the Scouts are about to repeal the national ban on homosexual leaders and members and leave it up to the 290 local governing councils and the 116,000 sponsoring religious and civic groups. The vote of the National Board comes next week.

If the Boy Scouts give in to the bullying by homosexual activists, this will be only the first step in remaking the Scouts into something we will not recognize in a few years.

Action Steps

Contact the national office of the Boy Scouts of America and ask them to keep the ban in place. There is already a molestation problem within the Scouts even with the ban; it will only get worse if the ban is lifted.

Call the national office of the Scouts at 972-580-2000 AND email them using this contact form. Message: The safety of the boys in their charge will be greatly compromised if the ban on homosexual leaders and members is lifted. The mission of the Boy Scouts of America will be undermined as the BSA is “to prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes.” The Scout Oath will be thrown aside as the “morally straight” component is replaced with moral relativism.

Personally I think this is an attack on moms. I’m a mother of a boyscout and this is how I feel. If boyscouts want to make it a safe environment, then they should contemplate that you can’t be in charge unless you have children. This is a trust issue. In all seriousness how many parents would put their children in an organization ran by someone who doesnt have any experience in this field. We raise our children and it takes love, time and money. Boy scouts are there to teach are children and enhance childrens learning process in a fun way. It’s like a job if you don’t have the skills and knowledge then you don’t get the job. So I think if you lift this ban – then everyone should know if they are gay or not and see how many parents entrust their children in the hands of someone with no experience.
Take a poll and ask these questions of parents and see what kind of feedback you will get.
To me this a power struggle and manipulation of the system.

Thank you for your support
